The storage of a Samsung Galaxy A20 has constantly been a concern, for many years mobile phones have not necessarily been equipped with sufficient internal storage volume or an SD slot to improve the capacity of the latter. However, for some time now, the volume issue has been resolved, now people are starting to take an interest in the RAM component, this other type of memory is almost as important as the internal memory of your smartphone. We will precisely in this guide help you if you have any questions on this topic.
In this article you will see how to check the RAM memory of its Samsung Galaxy A20? To do this, we will first show you what the RAM of your smartphone is used for, then, how to know the RAM of your Samsung Galaxy A20 , and, finally, whether it is possible to increase the volume of RAM memory on your smartphone.
What is the point of RAM on a Samsung Galaxy A20?
We therefore start this tutorial by briefly teaching you what is and what is the function of the RAM on a Samsung Galaxy A20.

It will, for example, give you the possibility of running different applications at the same time, it is this which will therefore keep in memory all the data necessary to keep applications in the background. In the event that you play greedy games which require a lot of resources and computation on the side of the processor, it is the RAM that will take over and allow the processor to have all the files at hand.
A significant amount of RAM memory will therefore be important to have decent performance on your Samsung Galaxy A20. However, it's a bit like everything, after a certain volume your processor will not be powerful enough to use it and you will consequently have unused memory. We must therefore find the right ratio of processor power / amount of RAM. At the moment, the most powerful phones are equipped with 8 to 10 GB of RAM which is huge!
How to know the RAM of your Samsung Galaxy A20?
We now move on to the verification part, which probably interests you the most, and to do this, we will now introduce you how to know everything about the RAM of your Samsung Galaxy A20.

- Through the configurations of your smartphone
- Go to the "Settings" of your smartphone
- In the "Device maintenance" menu, locate the "Memory" indicator
- You will have a ratio as well as a progress bar that gives you the amount of memory used
- With CPU-Z
- Open CPU-Z
- Go to the tab "Device"
- In "Available RAM" you will see the amount of RAM available on your Samsung Galaxy A20, as well as a percentage to make it easier for you to interpret it
If you notice that you have very little RAM available without necessarily having a lot of applications running, it is probably necessary close background applications that saturate it. You can also clear the cache of your Samsung Galaxy A20 to free up space and improve your performance.
